The liberal just force the Flight Attendants to go back to work
-
At this point, the Liberals have bowed to Trump (and got nothing for it), made largely symbolic genstures to limit immigrantion blocking primary those who are paying to be here while ignoring the workers we effectively enslave with the TFW program, done nothing about housing, and has blocked unions. At this point, might have well voted for Polieve (or, you know, someone sane).
Remind me who ordered the Westjet mechanics back to work a few years ago?

I have to think that if they keep doing this every time there’s a major strike coming, the courts are going to rule against the current labour relations laws entirely. The right to strike is in the Charter.
Conductors at CN and CP are waiting for the Supreme Court to rule on exactly this point. It’s been over a year now with a four-year contract that has expired over a year ago. Carney is not labour friendly.
-
Yeah! It’s all the liberals fault!
We get liberals in office and… Why are you not doing enough?
And when they’re not in office, why aren’t you doing anything?!
The two party system is just sandwiching we, the people, between two rotting pieces of shit soaked bread. No matter who “wins” the election, we, the people, always fucking lose. That’s the way of things. The government doesn’t represent you and I, they’re there to make the lives of businesses easier. So we’re going to get roflstomped either way.
I will say that one party seems to stink a whole lot less than the other.
Nothing will change until WE the workers change it.

The right to collectively bargain and strike was fought with blood. Allowing unions was the better alternative to blood. Now they seem to be forgetting that.
I wonder who spilled that blood.

Wait the guy with IMF ties isnt pro worker?!?!?! S/

As a shocking move (not) the liberal government side with AirCanada patrons and forced the flight attendants union to go in legal arbitration (right word ?)
If you liked spammed your social with photo of Patricia Hadjy and PM Carney with the #UnpaidWorkWontfly
Love & Rage
That’s why we were saying pre-election, vote for a strong NDP to reign in the Liberals. And a bunch of Carney shills were throwing tantrums.

Honestly because of his leadership, my future votes will be going towards NDP or Greens. The Liberals have lost my vote forever. I voted Liberal to avoid a Conservative government and I feel like I ended up with one anyways.

In my riding (historically strong NDP) that kind of thinking got a conservative MP elected. I’m sure similar situations played out across the country.

Ndp had no chance.
And I’d rather have a traditional right wing party leader and centre party over an alt right lunatic.
Ndp needs to fix its shit for the next cycle.

NDP doesn’t really campaign in my province, Liberals had the better shot here.

Recall that Jagmeet “Singh” was actually from the upper crust of Indian social structure. His actual family name is Dhaliwal.
He was never on our side.
That’s a weird take. Family name and upbringing aside, he was the most “on our side” politician available at the time. I think his main fault was simply that he wasn’t very likeable.

Hes a rich fuck who used the NDP to further his own things. Hes as much on our side as Taylor Swift or any of the Trumps.
He didnt do jack shit for Vancouver after he was parachuted into one of the safest NDP strongholds in the country and it is directly on head for losing it.

Equating Jagmeet to both Taylor Swift and the Trumps? I’m not sure I’m following you point, unless your point is simply “rich people bad”.
Did you have a better candidate to cast your vote to?

Good to know about the conductors!
Looks like the flight attendants are just going straight to a wildcat strike, lol.

I feel the need to point out that multiparty systems are all over and not all that different, in terms of labour rights.

All I want to say is: there’s a lot more of us, than there are of them.
We have the power. We just all need to agree on a course of action… It’s that last part that I think will prove to be difficult… The first bits of getting people to recognise that together we, in fact, hold the power… That won’t be easy either, but it will be a cakewalk compared to getting everyone to agree on how to proceed and have everyone take action when required.
Herding cats comes to mind.

We should walk out in solidarity.

Capitalists.

Capitalists.
I was more thinking along the lines of boot lickers. People paid to force their own into submission.
When there is major protests and the government or the capitalists don’t want to give more crumbs, they send the police, who will gleefully kettle, arrest, hit, and maim people.
My friend’s parents were injured in a protest a few years ago because of the police. You have the right to protest until they ORDER you to disperse and go back home. If the movement becomes too big to ignore, it has to be crushed with the monopoly of violence instead of “caving in” and help the poorest.
EDIT: Those capitalists?

Who’s we? Reminder that a good third of the population strongly prefers the Conservatives, and another third don’t care.

We, the workers of this country, should walk out. Third grade is hard, I know.
